Chapter 568 A Dud
"Seducing the Americans and attacking their own MSL brothers, is this what Saudi Arabia does? The bombing today has killed and injured hundreds of Iraqi civilians! Facing such behavior, we Iraqis have no patience, we must use the sword in our hands to defend our right to survive! Our target is not Saudi Arabia, but the Western troops in Saudi Arabia that interfere in our Middle East! Their existence has tainted this land!" Saddam stood up and said loudly: "I declare the start of the war against Saudi Arabia!"
"Bang!" At this moment, the picture suddenly shook, and then the whole room began to shake!
Saddam still maintained the same posture, the anger on his face could not be concealed. He waved his right fist, as if he could strike down at any time. Unfortunately, the picture was frozen at this moment.
"Boom!" A bomb weighing one ton fell from the sky, directly collapsing the roof of the TV station building, and then smashed through the two-story floor. Then, the fuse detonated the explosives.
The huge explosion was the last sound coming from the TV station building. Following the explosion, half of the building collapsed instantly. Although the other half still maintained its original shape, it was already shaky.
This sound woke up many people.
"Hurry, go to the underground fortifications immediately!" At the moment when a huge explosion occurred in the distance, Saddam's speech was also being played in the Ministry of Defense where Andre was.
With the sound of the explosion, Saddam's speech was immediately interrupted! At this moment, Andre had already determined what had happened.
It turns out that whatever you fear will come true!
While Adnan was still in a daze, he saw Andre had already rushed out. The two buildings were only a few kilometers apart, which was just a matter of seconds for an airplane in the sky!
At this time, you are racing against your own life! Andre ran extremely fast.
"Bang!" At this moment, the whole building began to shake. Andre's face changed. Damn, the bomb has been dropped! The whole building was shaking. Now, I'm afraid it will explode immediately? Even if this building is stronger than the TV station's building, it can't withstand the bombing from the air!
There were still two floors to go, and he couldn't take the stairs! Andrei dodged and ran to a small compartment next to him. In an explosion, this kind of small space was the easiest to survive.
Beside Andre, several guards who followed him also rushed in and protected Andre with their bodies.
These were the most difficult few seconds as Andre was waiting for the huge explosion at the next moment.
However, one second, two seconds, three seconds, time passed little by little, but there was still no sound of explosion.
At this time, in the command hall on the fifth floor, Adnan and others looked at the big bomb on the roof with weak legs. It fell from the roof of the seventh floor to the roof of the fifth floor and got stuck there. It was not until now that they knew what General Andrei had just said. The American bombing had begun!
Their minds were blank.
"Everyone, cheer up! This is a dud!" At this moment, Andrei's guard captain, the Cossack warrior Vasily, ran up and shouted, "Now, retreat quickly to the underground command center!"
It was a dud! Fortunately, the bomb did not explode, otherwise, all the senior Iraqi military officials present would have been killed!
Adnan finally reacted at this time. His face turned pale and his legs were still trembling, but he still ran downstairs quickly.
Run, that dud bomb, who knows if it will explode again!
When he ran to the third floor, Andre followed him out and ran downstairs together.
"Minister Adnan, the American air strikes have started again. We must fight back severely. When we get to the underground command center, immediately issue orders and attack with all your might!" Andre said to Adnan as he ran.
Although Andre knew there was an underground command center here, he didn't know how to get there. How could they tell him their national defense secrets? So Andre waited until Adnan came down, and then he ran with him.
All the lights suddenly went out, and Andre could guess that the American air raid planes had bombed the power plant and power supply agency on the outskirts of the city. He took out a high-intensity flashlight and the group continued to run down.
The underground fortifications were fifty meters deep underground, and could even withstand a nuclear bomb attack when necessary! There were only a few guards here, but the backup generator had been started. After turning around the stairs, the light suddenly came on here.
"Start the system and give orders to our troops to enter Saudi Arabia as planned!" At this time, almost all of the senior officials who ran in from the rear were pale and panicked, but Andre's confidence gave them confidence. They quickly calmed down, but they didn't realize that the person who gave them the order was actually a Soviet!
Watching these people begin to convey commands by voice, Andre couldn't help but shake his head. This system was indeed too old. The tree-like command system could easily lose control of the lower levels after the nodes were knocked out. It seemed that some of our own information-based command system equipment should be provided to Iraq. When necessary, we could even directly command a tank crew on the front line!
Fortunately, the orders were passed down one by one, and most of them arrived on time.
When the order was delivered, Adnan suddenly remembered something: "By the way, where is our president?"
In the life-and-death moment just now, everyone was thinking about whether they could escape. Now that they are finally safe, they remembered President Saddam.
"Yes, let's go find the president!" Someone immediately couldn't sit still.
"Stay here and don't move!" Andre looked at these brainless guys. They were still thinking about being loyal at this time. Didn't they know where their posts were?
"There aren't many bombing planes. The guards who followed the president will rescue him. Our mission is to command the battle here. The American air strikes have caused us heavy losses. We want revenge!"
Revenge! Andrei incited everyone's heart again. Adnan asked Andrei suspiciously, "General Andrei, are you so sure that it was an American air raid? However, our air defense system did not respond at all."
Nonsense, of course it was an airstrike! The bomb was on the roof of the fifth floor. If it wasn't dropped by a plane, how could it be a shell? The air defense system didn't react because they used a stealth plane!
"Oh no, oh no!" At this moment, Rashid, the commander of the Republican Guard, ran in in a panic: "The President, the President has gone to see the true God!"
